| High-resolution 76-m (LOD9) Terrain Mesh and Scenery Enhancements for the Southern Canadian Rockies |
|
File Description:
Not simply an add-on mesh, these files include many scenery enhancements for the southern Rockies of British Columbia and Alberta. Coverage extends from Cranbrook to Calgary, and Hinton to Edmonton (N48.9-53.4 W112.3-116.3). The mesh source data are 3-arcsec (~90-m) Shuttle Radar (SRTM) files, compiled at LOD9 (76-m) resolution. All lake elevations (!) have been adjusted to eliminate the problems with the default lake data and to better fit the new terrain mesh. In addition, the Transcanada Highway/Icefields Parkway corridor in Banff National Park, from Canmore to the Hwy 11 junction, has been completely re-made, with dozens of alpine lakes (including Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, and Lake O'Hara), accurate transportation network, and landclass/waterclass updates based on satellite imagery. Due to significant changes in FS2004 to vector layering and autogen features, the special scenery enhancements cannot be used with FS2002. However, terrain mesh, lake corrections and landclass replacements will work well in FS2002.

| "Himalayan Peaks" LOD10 Mesh, Volume 3 - Namcha Barwa |
|
File Description:
Highly detailed terrain mesh of the Namcha Barwa area, N29°-31° E94°-96°. The files in this package are based on Shuttle Radar (SRTM) Version 2 data but with many of the void areas, especially the most significant sections, filled with elevation data generated from topographic maps by Jonathan de Ferranti. While Jonathan's work is unrelated to flight simulation he kindly gave me permission to compile his data for use in FS. The result is a wonderful improvement in detail and accuracy over any existing mesh file, freeware or commercial, based on SRTM or DTED data alone. Due to the large area of the Himalayas I've compiled the source data as two separate series: the "Himalayan Peaks" series covers prominent mountains and ranges in higher detail and locally overrides any existing LOD9 terrain mesh. In addition, a LOD9 "base mesh" series covering the entire Himalayas will be available for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

File Description:
This is a major update to the previous airport package (Frankfurt ILS25R V2.2 package) using ADE 1.47 and represents the layout of the airport in June 2010.
Features now include updated ILS/DME capabilities to runways as per recent changes, a completely revised South City Cargo area, updated aprons including new flood lit lighting and a new Lufthansa A380 hangar built in Gmax.
Revised airline gate allocations for Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 included plus the addition of 5 new A380 gates at Terminal 2. A new control tower on the north parking apron has been added in preparation for the A-plus terminal expansion.
Runways and several taxiway textures changed to asphalt as per resurfacing work at real airport.
Improved quality CAT II/III signage available at intersections and new No Entry signage added for specific taxiways for extra realism.
Many other features from the previous packages are still included. See readme file for detailed information

File Description:
This is an updated version of this scenery to correct texturing errors. My thanks to the the good folks on the MAIW forums for catching and correcting this error. Situated in the San Francisco Bay Area and known as the "Gateway to the Pacific", Travis Air Force Base handles more cargo and passenger traffic through its airport than any other military air terminal in the United States. Originally laid out as a SAC base for long range bombers, the original hangar line and facilities for B-36 and B-52 aircraft have been largely rebuilt over the years to accommodate the current cargo operations of the 60th Air Mobility Wing (host at Travis). The 60th supports and deploys both the C-5 Galaxy and C-17 Globemaster as well as its own refueling squadrons of KC-10 Tankers. In addition, the base's former SAC alert facility now supports 2 transient Navy E-6B Mercury TACAMO aircraft detached from Tinker AFB, Oklahoma.

| Beechcraft T-34C with full functionalities and failure modules |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
FS9 freeware ALPHASIM T-34C aircraft with:
- improved Virtual Cockpit and 2D Panel, partly with custom gauges, featuring
- extensive system functionalities based on the NATOPS T-34C familiarisation manual (included)
- random and pilot induced failure modules
This is the complete aircraft. I also modified the airfile and aircraft.cfg to adjust some parameters and aircraft performance more closely to real world data. In addition, random and pilot induced failure modules are embedded in the gauges. The likelihood of random failures can be selected in steps from never to certain. Pilot induced failures include exceedance of engine limits, hotstart, Engine FOD Damage on unpaved surfaces, Engine Flame out during rain or snowfall, tire wear. Random failures include failure in engine, engine fire, Battery, Generator, Avionic System, Inverters, fuel pumps, fuel leak, oil leak, prop governor, pitot blockage, static port blockage, instruments, flight controls, and they may happen already on ground, so do your preflight checks!
